Abstract

A method of IC packing/unpacking for preserving and updating data stored in the IC and the structure thereof is disclosed. The method is able to encase the IC to prevent intentional piracy and allow data preservation and update. The structure has an upper plate ( 10 ) having a trough ( 12 ) defined therein; a lower plate ( 20 ) detachably connected with the upper plate ( 10 ); a PCB ( 30 ) sandwiched between the upper plate ( 10 ) and the lower plate ( 20 ) and forming an electrical connection with the upper plate ( 10 ); an interface ( 60 ) detachably inserted into the trough ( 12 ) and being able to receive data therein; and a controller ( 50 ) electrically connected with the interface ( 60 ) for coding the interface ( 60 ).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . A structure for packing/unpacking IC for preserving and updating data within the IC comprising: 
 an upper plate ( 10 ) having a plurality of coding buttons ( 13 );    a lower plate ( 20 ) detachably connected with the upper plate ( 10 );    a PCB ( 30 ) sandwiched between the upper plate ( 10 ) and the lower plate ( 20 ) and forming an electrical connection with the upper plate ( 10 );    a decoder ( 40 ) having a plurality of keys ( 41 ) extending therefrom to correspond to the coding buttons ( 13 ); and    a controller ( 50 ) electrically connected with the decoder ( 40 ) for transmitting signals to the decoder ( 40 ) to activate the keys ( 41 ).    
     
     
         2 . The structure as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the upper plate ( 10 ) further has a trough ( 12 ) defined above the coding buttons ( 13 ).  
     
     
         3 . A structure for packing/unpacking IC for preserving and updating data within the IC comprising: 
 an upper plate ( 10 ) having a trough ( 12 ) defined therein;    a lower plate ( 20 ) detachably connected with the upper plate ( 10 );    a PCB ( 30 ) sandwiched between the upper plate ( 10 ) and the lower plate ( 20 ) and forming an electrical connection with the upper plate ( 10 );    an interface ( 60 ) detachably inserted into the trough ( 12 ) and being able to receive data therein; and    a controller ( 50 ) electrically connected with the interface ( 60 ) for coding the interface ( 60 ).
